Please help what our Patron, Michael Morpurgo, has described as our “remarkable and vital work”.

Sponsorship

The Human Values Foundation owes its existence almost entirely to the generosity of donations from its supporters. We strive to make our inspiring and life-changing primary and secondary values-themed publications available to teachers throughout the UK and overseas at prices their schools can afford.

The Foundation always has several on-going projects, including those listed below, to further our work and we need and welcome practical and financial support for:

upgrading our materials to harness the power of new technologies

maintaining and upgrading the website

letting schools know about our values-themed teaching resources

attending education conferences & events

representatives to introduce our materials to schools

printing costs

translating our programmes into foreign languages

fundraising

If you, individually or in conjunction with an organisation with which you are connected, can help us financially, you can be sure you will be making a very valuable difference to the world.

Brief statement of main objectives of our Charity

* Our aim is to profoundly enrich the lives and therefore the emotional wellbeing, levels of achievement, relationships, social competencies, personal qualities and life chances of children and young people, whatever their social backgrounds.

* To this end we provide life-changing VALUES EDUCATION programmes. Their empowering, holistic approach to development has the potential not only to benefit pupils at all ages and stages in mainstream schools but also those who are in other places of learning and being assisted perhaps because they have special needs or are underachieving, disengaged from education or their communities or are at risk of or already involved in crime.

Increasingly VALUES EDUCATION is improving the quality of life, providing hope and value itself in 3 main areas:

EDUCATIONAL VALUE - for young children, adolescents, their teachers and parents or caregivers

SOCIAL VALUE - bringing about changes in individuals' thinking, behaviour and relationships, enhancing their own wellbeing and that of their schools, families and communities

At this time when the importance of children's character development and wellbeing as the foundation of their futures is becoming more widely recognised and the need for all young people to understand and be able to use carefully chosen values to enhance every aspect of their lives is becoming a higher priority, we look forward to hearing from you and hope that with your support we can enable thousands more children improve their future trajectories with personal qualities and life-enhancing skills that will allow them to choose pathways that will maximise their education opportunities, talents and true potential.
